M. Prenninger et al., INFRARED REFLECTIVITY OF BI-2212 SINGLE-CRYSTALS WITH DIFFERENT OXYGEN STOICHIOMETRIES, Physica. C, Superconductivity, 235, 1994, pp. 1131-1132
A study of infrared reflectivity of Bi-2212 is reported for two crysta
ls with different oxygen stoichiometries having T-c values of 91 K for
an optimally doped sample and 73 K for an overdoped sample. At 10 K t
he reflectivity of the optimally doped crystal is close to unity below
400 cm(-1) while for the overdoped crystal the reflectivity remains n
oticeably smaller than unity. By Kramers-Kronig analysis we determined
the dynamical conductivity of the two crystals.
